In the video "A Call Of Men" it speaks about the wrong ways we determine and a expect a men to act and be even though when they are very young. Tony Porter explains in the video about how women are being looked down by men and how that can really be changed in this society. Tony Porter stated in the video how men from being young as growing up men have this "Man Box". The "Man Bow" shows and explains the ways how man should act. However, in the "Man Box" it shows and explains men shouldn't show their emotions. Also it states that men are stronger then women, moreover men are protectors they should be heterosexual and dominant. However, Tony Porter states from a young age the father's teach their son's how to be a "Man".
Another, Tony Porter stated in the video about men is that since men really has the "Man Box" it causes men to be dominant or violent. However, it causes men to sexually assault a women whenever they feel it's right to do so. Moreover, what really caught my attention in this video, when Tony Porter stated towards the end of this video that men should come up off their back and not be so aggressive the way they are now. They should show their emotions and be a little sensitive and it will change how society view women.
In the video "Killing Us Softly" Jean Kilbourne explains about how women are being advertised and seens as "objects". Jean Kilbourne explains about women are being exposed in magazines and advertisement with nice fit slim body and just trying to show society how a women body should really look. Jean Kilbourne explains more about how it affects women's self esteem and it is violent to turn a person's body to a thing or object. She states that there teenage young girls harming themselves just to look like these advertisements which they are really fake, just to persuade people to have the look so other people can love them, instead of them really loving their selves.
Jean Kilbourne also stated advertisement companies use women body to sell products and portray these women as objects. Moreover, a lot of women not focus on their own personality, it's more on their body because every women would want to have a nice body look maybe to express their selves, for example thick women maybe won't like her shape but she'll try to put in that effort to go to the gym and work out, or eat healthy diet food just to fit in so the women can have that look. Basically in many women advertisement is the way women are being viewed in this culture or society.
The video "Killing Us Softly" reminds me of the article the "Retro Wife" by, Lisa Miller it explains how Kelly Makino left her career job to take care of her husband and her two kids and just being an house wife. However, she felt that she wants to be with her kids all the time, so she can be able to raise them the right way they should be raised. Kelly Makino was always there for her kids she will always help them with their homework, cook and clean while her husband was at work. This article connects to the video "Killing Me Softly" because it shows how woman was being viewed in certain ways. However, it shows the old way of women's role in society. Moreover, women in today society are more independent, but there still some wpmen plays the role as an house wife still.
The video "Call To Men" reminds me of the article "Parents Socialization Of Children" because it explains the different ways how parents raise their kids. However, parent's are more involved in their kids life has greater expectations of their children's behavior. In the article speaks about parents being Authoritative, Permissive or Authoritarian. An Authoritative
parent raises their kid strictly by in forcing rules but they are
understanding and they have a good way of speaking to their children. A Permissive parent
is not involved in their children lives and they don't have any part in
raising their children and this causes them to be aggressive, aimless,
lacking in self control etc. Finally, an Authoritarian parent demand obedience very strict about raising their kids and would go to the extreme punishments to do so.Basically this relates to the video "Call Of Men" and how Tony Porter raises his child to be a respectful child.
The two articles and videos relates to Chapter of Socialization. Women and men are being treated or known as different social institutions. It can be the culture, education, work and etc. For example, men are always being viewed the stronger person. However, in society now men are getting paid more then women. Another, there's certain sports that women can't play because it's a male sport such as football I guess they view women not having so much strength that a male has. More likely it can be education too because there women that has to stay at home watch there kids or is pregnant and can't finish education, but the males can always get there education because some feel they have no worries or responsibility to worry about.
